February 21Feb 21 comment_746270 We know CK is an incredible singer. Something was up tonight... She was sick, her IEMs weren't working... SOMETHING. She's well known as a very good singer.

February 21Feb 21 comment_746302 Honestly I hope that anthems before games go away... Just get to the game.
February 21Feb 21 comment_746303 Anthems at tournaments make sense. Anthems before every nhl games don’t.
February 21Feb 21 comment_746311 To shed my toddler competitive hat for a sec, imho sport is ultimately meant to help unify us and drown out the absurdness that is bombarding and stressing us all out.
February 21Feb 21 comment_746329 Anthems are required at tournaments cuz really it’s all about standing there singing along. That’s a big deal at olympics and 4 nation style tournaments. The nhl tho, i mean let’s look at our jets. we got Canadian players. We got American players. We got a Dane. We got some Swedes and a Finn or 2 and sometimes a Russian. Playing 2 anthems don’t make sense. the booing of the cdn anthem was stupid. Boston is Kamala ville so really, why did they boo? Cuz we did right but Canadians had a legit reason to boo. What’s the USAs excuse. Cuz we boo’d them? That’s weak. Edited February 21Feb 21 by Goalie

I saw a video from the game where someone was holding a sign saying that Canada will welcome the States as the 11th province and that "triggered" some Americans into wanting to get into a fight. Yet the President and more recently the press secretary continue to "joke" about Canada being a new State and for those same simple folks they find nothing wrong with that same message coming from their side.

I'm neutral on playing or not playing the anthem before games, but I always thought it had nothing to do with the players specifically but has to do with the country the team is located ergo the residents of said country where the team is located.
February 21Feb 21 comment_746352 I like the Olympics and IIHF handling of the anthems. The winning team anthem is played at the end of the game. In general I think the anthems at sporting events like NBA/NHL/CFL/NFL etc. are dumb. Don't get me wrong, I love belting out O Canada, but like others have mentioned, the teams are comprised of players from multiple nations. I think they should seriously consider removing them.

It would have been outstanding if they did while carrying King Charles out to centre field with servants in tow feeding him grapes and shielding him from the sun.

He’s had 4 suspensions since April of ‘23 and he never thinks he does anything wrong. Great idea to reward him with a reduction Bettman.

February 25Feb 25 comment_746669 speaking of which, I came across some old photos of the old barn on facebook today. Kind of makes me wish I went to more events there, my last event was a Disney on Ice Show in 2004
February 25Feb 25 comment_746672 The only thing I miss is Select A Seat. They built the new arena downtown. Now people don't feel safe walking back to their cars or taking a bus to & from the games to get home. Never felt that way with the old Arena.
